Hey yall,
Proud New owner here of an 18 JLU in Punkn! It came with a Rough Country (not my 1st choice) lift which I think is 3.5" and a set of Vision wheels wrapped in 34.4" Pathfinder AT rubber. This is my first Wrangler, I've wanted one for awhile now especially since the JL came out. I sold an 18 Tacoma TRD Sport because the back seat was too small for my 5 and 7 year old children. Surprisingly the Wrangler has a ton more room in the back seat and the kids love having the top down/doors off so that a big plus! I've got LED headlights on order from Bunker Industries (amazon) and plan to wrap the stock spare wheel in matching rubber to what's on all 4 corners. I'm hoping to learn more about this generation of Wrangler and get many more smiles out of this machine!

Thank you! This is definitely the loudest (I mean color) vehicle I've ever owned but I am enjoying the way the color pops. It really looks good in all lighting conditions and is so subtly metallic. Rides great for being lifted and drives better than my friends lifted JK. Sucks the weather is turning and top down weather will be gone soon but I can't wait for next year when I can have the doors off for weeks at a time! Are there any livability mods that anyone recommends to a first time Wrangler owner?

Tube doors or halfs are definitely on the list, atleast for the back doors. I don't so much worry about myself as much as I do about the kiddos. They do listen well to the doors off rules though.

Find a fifth wheel to match. It kills me.

Welcome and congratulations on the best color Jeep :rock:. The name is Punk’n Metallic, but it’s glass flake and not metallic.

Punkin’ and a stick shift? Nice choice! Bonus Punkin’ Points for that.

Nice jeep, welcome to the forum and Jeep community! Make sure to wave.

You're more bold than me as I've never taken the kids backseat doors off and mine are 13 and 9.
